Support Fertility Journeys with Confidence, Care, and Community

As a Holistic Fertility Doula, you will learn how to support individuals and couples through fertility through evidence-informed, culturally-responsive, and person-centered care. Our approach integrates physical support, emotional presence, advocacy, and continuity of care throughout the fertility experience.

Why Train with NBDA for Holistic Fertility Doula Care

  • Black-Led. Community-Rooted. Empowerment-Focused. NBDA is led by seasoned doulas and holistic practitioners who understand the realities of fertility care, reproductive journeys, and how systemic inequities impact access and outcomes.
  • Training Designed for Real-World Practice Our trainings emphasize practical tools, reflective practice, client communication, emotional support strategies, and culturally-appropriate frameworks for supporting people through fertility.
  • Advocacy Is Not an Add-On We equip you to help clients navigate healthcare systems, informed consent, and decision-making pathways with clarity and confidence.
  • Holistic Perspectives Built In We integrate mind-body principles, lifestyle considerations, spiritual care elements, and trauma-responsive approaches that honor the whole person.

Holistic Fertility Doula Training Certification Process 

 Important:
Currently, the Holistic Fertility Doula course offered by NBDA is an introductory training and does not lead to a certification at this time. Here’s how it works now:

 • Completion Status When you complete the Holistic Fertility Doula Intro Training, you will receive a Certificate of Completion acknowledging your participation and learning.

 • Certification vs Certificate of Completion This course does not require mentorship or documentation of client support because it is introductory learning, not certification training.

• What This Means for You Now Graduates of the current course may use the Certificate of Completion for professional development, resume building, community offerings, continuing education, and personal growth but it is not a certification.

Holistic Fertility Doula Certification NBDA is excited to announce the future expansion of this pathway: 

In 2027 we will launch: Holistic Fertility Doula Level 2 Certification Course 3-day intensive training Designed for professional practice Includes mentorship expectations.

Yields an official Holistic Fertility Doula Certification

This Level 2 course is ideal for those who want to elevate their practice, expand client support offerings, and hold a recognized professional certification.
